Publisher Description
From the USA Today bestselling author of Reel comes a powerful, "achingly beautiful" (A.L. Jackson) novel of one woman on the brink of making a decision that will change her life forever.
Kerris Moreton knows how to make things work. Bounced from foster home to foster home as a kid, she adapted; when opportunity arose, she thrived. Now, about to open her own business and accept a marriage proposal, Kerris is ready to build the life she's always wanted. The only thing missing? A passionate connection with her would-be fiance, Cam. Kerris wants to believe that sparks are overrated-until Walsh Bennett lights her up like the Fourth of July.
As one of the East Coast's most eligible bachelors, Walsh enjoys financial independence, fulfilling work with his family's nonprofit, and plenty of female attention. But lately he's been distracted by the one woman he can't have. Lovely to look at and even sweeter to know, Kerris is the soul mate Walsh never thought he would find. The problem is, his best friend found her first.
Customer Reviews
Oh the feels!
Kerris and Walsh meet when he returns to his hometown after a long trip abroad. He finally meets th woman his mother has been bragging about. The woman about to marry his best friend. Just one little problem...
She is the only woman he has ever thought about forever with. He sees the same feelings mirrored in her eyes. She just cannot past the promise of a future with his best friend. Regardless of his warnings, they marry anyway.
Walsh knows he must stay away. They look at each other and it shows on their faces. Too many people could get hurt. He learns about the business from his father and tries to go on with his life. Nothing dulls the pain. Nothing.
Kerris is a woman of her word. She has promised her husband she wants a future with him and she means to be faithful. They have so much in common from the past. They have scars others would not understand. If only she did not dream of Walsh.
Such a heart wrenching story with an open and raw, almost gaping wound. I felt the emotions right down to my soul. It just makes you want to take the characters and smack 'em up side of the head.

Bronzeville Book Diva
I love a good love story that test the morals of what is right and what is wrong. A love that questioned, challenged, and evolved two people to learn and understand what soul mates truly are. This book will test your morals on what is actually right and wrong through different perspectives and from different lens.
Strong connection
“What would you call an orchid that sprang up out of thin air?” The answer to this question is Walsh’s and Kerris, bond. Walsh has a strong connection with his best friend’s wife, Kerris. Their relationship is like one others but there is one thing Walsh won’t do, break up a marriage. The loss of his mother causes him to rethink the plan that he has for his life.
I am so excited to read the second book and see what happens.
